This actor needs more money

In April, Shen Teng took the cast and crew on road shows. For the first movie, there was a lot of publicity pressure, and Mahua almost blocked everything.

The planned road show is in sixty cities.

On average, I have to travel to three cities a day.

Everyone was so tired that they were out of breath. They returned to the hotel at night, closed their eyes and went to sleep.

May Day is approaching, and Charlotte is still in the promotional period in full swing. Wu Jing's Wolf Warrior 2 has started shooting, and the domestic scenes will be filmed first.

Wu Jing is still the male lead, and the female lead is Lu Jingshan. In terms of supporting roles, Wu Gang, Uncle Yu, and Zhang Han are invited.

Compared to the first part, the lineup is a level higher.

It is worth mentioning that this time Ding Xiu was given the title of producer in the film. In order to attract traffic, Wu Jing also tried his best.

Ding Xiu was not idle either. He stayed with Gao Yuanyuan at home for several months. After successfully planting the seeds, he received a call from the director of Crime City, inviting him to attend the opening ceremony of the Blue Dragon Award Film Festival.

Before he could say no, he said he might win the prize.

Damn it, Ding Xiu left on the same day.

"Director, long time no see."

As soon as he got off the plane, Ding Xiu saw the director coming to pick him up in person.

After eating, drinking, bathing, and one-stop service, it was already the middle of the night.

The next day, the director took him to visit some scenic spots and their traditional culture.

"Brother Xiu, look, our culture is not less than yours, right?"

"It's quite a lot." Ding Xiu touched his chin and said to himself. There were quite a lot of repetitions. At least most of them he had seen in China.

In one day, Ding Xiu visited all the places he could play. In the middle, a tour guide asked him if China was big.

Ding Xiu said it wasn't big, it was just over 5,000 kilometers from south to north, and it took six or seven hours to fly.

The old Korean man was silent for a long time without speaking.

Because their country is only a thousand kilometers from south to north, and it usually takes less than an hour to travel by plane.

Peiping, where Ding Xiu is located, is twenty-seven times larger than Seoul.

On the third day after arriving in South Korea, the opening ceremony of the Blue Dragon Film Festival began. Ding Xiu appeared as a guest and participated in the opening speech.

Now he is very popular here, and his popularity is very high.

When she walked on the red carpet, hundreds of media couldn't stop taking photos.

"Hello everyone, I am Ding Xiu, an actor from China. I am very happy to receive the invitation from the organizer to participate in the Blue Dragon Award..."

To be very official, he received the manuscript yesterday afternoon. It was all ready-made, but he changed a few words after receiving it.

For example, the original manuscript did not say where he was from, nor did it say that the organizer invited him to come.

As an invited guest, of course he needed to be respected, so he boldly changed the draft and said that was it, whether he wanted to hear it or not.

In the next few days, he has been hanging around the Blue Dragon Film Festival, eating, drinking and having fun every day, quietly waiting for the birth of the best actor.

When he met old acquaintances such as Song Huiqiao, Ma Dongxi, Huang Zhengming, and Jin Xishan, he drank once a day. After quitting for a while, he couldn't hold it in anymore. He was addicted to alcohol and drank almost from morning to night.

In the middle, Huang Zhengming missed an awards show because he was drunk.

On the last day of the Qinglong Film Festival, Ding Xiu strode into the awards hall with a neat suit and a 37-inch back and shiny hair.

"Teacher Ding, I have long admired your name."

"Hello Director Li, I have been looking forward to your movie for a long time."

"Brother Xiu, we meet again. You are a regular visitor every year."

"Wherever, good luck."

The last day was to announce the Best Actor and Best Actress. Not only the big names in the Korean entertainment industry came, but also many domestic celebrities.

Ding Xiu saw Li Jian, Hou Xiaoxian, Wang Jiawei, Qin Hao, Tang Wei and Chen Sicheng at the scene.

Soon, Ding Xiu found his seat. Coincidentally, next to him was Wang Jiawei. It was late at night, and he was still wearing sunglasses.

"I said, Lao Wang, can you see clearly?"

"Leave me alone!"

Ding Xiu laughed, and Wang Jiawei rolled his eyes at him: "Why are you laughing?"

"I thought of a joke that Wang Jiawei took off his glasses and walked down the street, and no one recognized him."

Wang Jiawei: "..."

Ding Xiu was very courageous and made fun of him all day long.

Other actors were trembling with fear when they saw me. Who wouldn't be scared?

Even Tony Leung Chaowei, Leslie Cheung, and Andy Lau all walked around when they met him, and their scenes with him were all overshadowed.

Some of them burst into tears when they got home from work.

In other words, Ding Xiu showed no fear or respect every time he met him, and he even dared to make fun of himself.

"I recently bought a novel that won the Contradiction Award. I want to make it into a TV series. Are you interested in coming over to play the lead male role?"

"Not interested." Ding Xiu refused without thinking.

Are you kidding me, whoever likes to film Wang Sunglasses's scenes will take three to five years, which will delay things.

His child has not yet been born, and it is estimated that after the filming of the movie is completed, the child will be able to attend primary school.

This is true for a two-hour movie. It is conceivable that the shooting time of a TV series with dozens of episodes will be doubled.

"Listen to me, the story is quite good. The magic city in the 1990s, the flowers on the Yellow River Road, stock trading, elites, love..."

"Not interested!" Ding Xiu interrupted him: "I haven't been in the mood to film a TV series recently."

"It's okay. I'll wait until you're in the mood to shoot. I've been preparing to polish the script in the past year or two, and I won't start filming in a few years."

Ding Xiu really wanted to poke him in the head with his middle finger.

It won't be launched until a few years later, so what do you think?

"Okay, let's talk about it then."

When the time comes, he will reject Wang Jiawei again.

The selection method for Best Actor and Best Actress at the Qinglong Film Festival is a little different from other awards. The first step is online voting.

Netizens select and vote for the works and people that they personally think are the best.

The second step is to take out the people with the highest votes from the list voted by netizens to form a shortlist.

The third step is to screen one hundred outstanding insiders from Asia to determine the best actor and actress.

People like Li Jian, Wang Jiawei and others are one of the judges of the Blue Dragon Award.

It's just that because there are too many judges, one vote and two votes will not have any internal operations at all.

Ding Xiu did not ask Wang Jiawei whether he voted for him, and it would be useless to ask.

It is worth mentioning that the shortlist for the Blue Dragon Award will be announced temporarily later, and then the award presenter will read out the best actor and best actress.

The suspense is great, and no one knows who will win until the last moment.

This is why the film festival has come to an end and no one has left.

Ding Xiu feels that China can learn from this.

Domestic film festivals announce their shortlists early. Some people stop coming when they see that they are not shortlisted and cannot win the award.

Others took a prize and left.

Invisibly, the liveliness and participation of the film festival have been greatly reduced.

…

"Welcome to the 36th Qinglong Film Festival, I am the host Jin Huixiu, and I am the host Liu Junxiang."

The host opens the event, the TV station broadcasts it live, the network synchronizes it, and the whole country watches.

Every Qinglong Award is so lively.

The hot girl group danced, and the famous idol group sang. After completing a set of procedures, Ding Xiu's butt almost hurt from sitting down.

Finally, the awards ceremony began.

The big awards tonight are Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Highest Box Office Award.

Number one is Best Director.

When the winner was announced, the director of Crime City immediately collapsed, and it wasn't him.

Then the camera cleverly landed on his face, and the director forced a smile and clapped.

But the bitterness on his face could not be concealed.

On the contrary, the winners cried with joy, shed tears, and hugged everyone around them.

Next up is Best Actor.

Shortlist announced.

Crime City: Ding Xiu.

In mourning: Liu Yaren.

Veteran: Huang Zhengming.

Assassination: Lee Jung Jae.

Office: Park Sung-woong

The five shortlisted candidates appeared, and the camera instantly focused on their faces, scanning them one by one, and the audience cheered.

"You don't seem excited?" Wang Jiawei applauded and turned his head to talk to Ding Xiu.

"What's so exciting about this."

"You're bragging! You're the Best Actor of the Blue Dragon Award. You're very influential in Asia. How dare you say you're not impressed."

South Korea also has three award-winning film festivals, which are comparable to the three domestic gold awards. Blue Dragon is one of them, which is equivalent to the domestic Golden Rooster Award.

Once he gets the title of Best Actor, his net worth will immediately soar.

Ding Xiu has already won the Best Actor Award at the Busan Film Festival before. If he wins the Blue Dragon Award this time, it will be awesome.

Although he is already among the top people in the country, winning another Blue Dragon Award will definitely take his career to a higher level.

From now on, he will definitely go sideways in the Asian film industry, and he can try to hit Hollywood.

When Cheng Long and Li Lienjie went to Hollywood, they started from scratch. If Ding Xiu had won the Blue Dragon Award and went there, his treatment would be a little bit better than that of Li Lienjie back then.

"The heartbeat is the heartbeat, and excitement is useful."

Seeing that the camera kept staring at him, Ding Xiu raised his hand, took off Wang Jiawei's sunglasses and put them on his face.

Suddenly, everyone at the scene and in front of the TV burst into laughter.

"My darn thing!"

It had been many years since he had taken off his glasses to be exposed to the audience. Wang Jiawei was a little overwhelmed. He tilted his head, pretended to hold his chin with his backhand, and then covered half of his face.

"Give me back my sunglasses."

"Don't worry, wear it for a while."

"Damn it, my vote for you yesterday was in vain. Next time I am a judge, I will vote for you with your surname again."

Ding Xiu put his arm around Wang Jiawei's shoulders, made a scissor hand gesture to the camera, and whispered: "As you said, wouldn't it be enough if I acted in your TV series?"

"real?"

"Fake! Whoever is mentally ill would act like you."

"What the hell!"

Wang Jiawei wanted to strangle Ding Xiu to death.

The camera stayed with Ding Xiu and the others for dozens of seconds, and then turned back to the stage. The award presenter came on stage and was about to announce the candidate for best actor.

A few seconds later, Ding Xiu seemed to hear his own voice.

The old man who presented the award had a low voice and his Chinese was not fluent. If you listened carefully, you wouldn't know what he was talking about.

However, a poster of Crime City appeared on the big screen on stage, with Ding Xiu's character's head reflected on it.

Only then did he know he had won.

Wang Jiawei, who snatched back his sunglasses, cursed: "Fuck you, these judges are so blind. Why did they vote for you? It's unreasonable. Fuck you."

Ding Xiu smiled, buttoned up his suit, stood up and strode onto the stage.

Go your own way and make others jealous.

After receiving the trophy, Ding Xiu bowed and began his acceptance speech: "Thank you to the director, thank you to the crew, thank you to the organizer, thank you to your parents, teachers, wife..."

The meaning of the acceptance speech is for people to thank their parents and family.

Some idiots get on stage, win awards, and then start talking nonsense, so they offend people not just once or twice.

Throughout the whole process, Ding Xiu spoke in Chinese.

There was an interpreter assigned to him, otherwise no one at the scene would be able to understand what he was saying.

After saying that, he walked off the stage with the trophy. When he passed by Ma Dongxi, he touched him for a few seconds.

"Just touch it, you still want to take it away."

Ding Xiu took the trophy away from the reluctant pony.

Xiao Ma was quite disappointed when he heard that the winner was not him. He felt that he was not good at the role. He was too righteous and not as evil as Zhang Qiandan.

Try to play a challenging role next time.

Taking out his mobile phone, Ding Xiu took a few selfies and sent them to Qin Gang, Gao Yuanyuan, Huang Bo and others in China.

A few minutes later, the photo of Ding Xiu winning the Qinglong Award was trending on domestic Weibo.

"Fuck, Ding Xiu is awesome."

"What is it about Crime City that makes Brother Xiu so fierce?"

"Nima, I'm jealous."

"This grandson is so lucky."

"Anyway, if you go and watch the original film, you won't be disappointed. It's normal to win awards."

"Ding Xiu's rank is one of the best in Asia."

"When can I see Ding Xiu in a Hollywood blockbuster? I look forward to it."

"No matter where you go to Hollywood, Hollywood will not be able to enter the domestic market. If you ask me, if Ding Xiu continues to develop steadily, he will definitely become a god in the future."

Best Actor was followed by Best Actress. Ding Xiu didn't pay attention, but he vaguely heard the names Quan Huizhen and Quan Zhixian.

There is no suspense about the highest box office award, Crime City, this time, the director looks a little better.

The next day, early in the morning, Ding Xiu took an early flight back to China.

What greeted him were various celebration banquets and rainbow farts.

Wherever he goes, he is surrounded by stars. Whatever he says is praised and no one refutes him.

All of a sudden, Ding Xiu had the illusion of being an emperor. No wonder the previous emperors were prone to mediocrity. He was surrounded by beautiful women and even his farts were praised. Who wouldn't be confused?

If Ding Xiu hadn't debuted early, been popular for many years, and had a strong determination, he almost wouldn't be able to hold on.

After he picked up several global endorsements, The Trouble in Charlotte was released on May Day.

The box office on the first day was 40 million.

Not high, not low, just above the passing line.

On the second day of its release, the single-day box office was 50 million, which was better than the first day. It was expected that more people would watch it during the holidays.

On the third day of release, the single-day revenue was RMB 60 million, which was an increase compared to the previous two days. At this time, the original investment had been repaid, and the next step was to make money.

On the fourth day of the release, Qin Gang booked a private room with a wave of his hand, and prepared to hold a celebration banquet.

On the eighth day of release, the single-day box office was 80 million. Qin Gang gave Shen Teng and other leading actors a red envelope of 800,000 each.

Fifteen days after its release, when the box office exceeded 1 billion, Qin Gang lay on the rooftop of the company, staring at the sky without saying a word, and kept giggling.

A week later, the box office reached 1.3 billion, and there was Ding Xiu beside him, and the two of them giggled together.

One month after its release, the total box office of "Charlotte" was 1.5 billion, surpassing the 1.1 billion in "Journey to the End", 1.1 billion in "Love in the Heart", and more than 1.2 billion in "Journey to the West", becoming the box office champion in film history.

Qin Chao Entertainment is making a lot of money!
